The new Lionel Watts Playground

I was in two minds about visiting the new Lionel Watts Playground. I have really lovely memories of visiting the old playground with my kids when they were little. But we finally got around to visiting it. I’m not sure how I feel about this playground. The old one was so lovely, with mostly wooden […]

Billarong Reserve Playground

There are a lot of playgrounds around Narrabeen Lakes but the most natural of these and currently our favourite is Billarong Reserve Playground. Billarong Reserve Playground used to be the most popular of the three playgrounds but with the introduction of the new Tramsheds playground it has taken a back seat. I like that it’s […]

Pirrama Park Playground

Pirrama Park Playground

Over a year ago a friend of mine suggested the kids and I visit Pirrama Park Playground. It’s now almost 2 years at time of publication. I’m sorry I’m so slow! I can’t believe it took us so long to get to it! It was a great suggestion, what a surprising little playground. Pirrama Park […]

Waitara Park Playground

This post is all about new Waitara Park Playground, the inclusive enclosed playground on Sydney’s north shore.

Livvi’s Place Elara

The Livvi’s Place playgrounds are my absolute favourite and now there is a new one, Livvi’s Place Elara. These playgrounds bright, colourful and carefully thought out! It’s actually become the bar against which I measure other playgrounds.

Warriewood Rocket Playground

I’ve also read so many people talking about it in Facebook but I wasn’t sure whether it would meet expectations. Well, I am glad to say that I was wrong – Warriewood Rocket Playground is great! It lived up to […]

James Meehan Playground, Dee Why

James Meehan Playground James Meehan Playground  is hidden under some big trees close to the Dee Why Lagoon. While it is visible from the road and from the big council car park I hadn’t examined it until recently.  The Playground isn’t new but it’s lovely albeit a little tired. It’s also so quiet now that […]

Newport Beach Playground 

Newport Beach Playground The Newport Beach Playground is now a decent enclosed playground!  This playground has had a complete overhaul in the last year, making it one of the nicest along the Northern Beaches beachfronts. 

Jacka Park in Freshwater

Jack Park Playground in Freshwater  I’ve driven past Jacka Park a hundred thousand times. I’ve driven past slowly, round and round the block examining it but never tempted taking the kids because I saw that there wasn’t a fence. On one of these circuits my kids saw the park and I was sunk – the […]
